Ferrari Tribute To 1000 Miglia: Wet Start Of The 4Th Edition
Company press release.
60 years after Giannino Marzotto's victory at the 1000 Miglia in 1953, Ferrari is back at the famous event with 74 teams taking part in the Ferrari Tribute to 1000 Miglia. Historical cars like the 330 GT 2+2 and modern GTs like the powerful F12 are driving through Italy on a trip where tradition meets innovation.
On the first stage the cars show up for the technical checks, followed by a defilee through Brescia's centre. Despite the rain the cars from Maranello, posing for a photo on Piazza della Loggia and later on Corso Giuseppe Garibaldi, invaded by the fascinating Reds, are admired by numerous spectators: it's impossible to remain indifferent seeing the 74 Ferraris standing together. At 6pm the cars go on their way to Desenzano sul Garda: the 512 BB fascinates with its massive rear tyres and one of the numerous sports cars is a 456 with a blue livery on the road along the lake. The race goes on and more and more spectators can be seen following the cars. The heavy rain accompanies the cars Verona via Sirmione and Peschiera del Garda. In the city of Romeo and Julia the check point ramp causes some difficulties for the most extreme Ferraris like the F40, but the cars passing in front of the Arena are a truly exciting sight.
When night falls the cars arrive in the city centre of Ferrara at around 11pm under the applaus of the spectators watching the cars just like top models on a catwalk.
The first stage ends in Ravenna, which is also the starting point of the second, which will lead the Ferraris to the eternal city.
